Chapter 2727: Chapter 2747: How Did It Suddenly Become the Focus?

Lin Chen looked at Guan Xia with surprise, not expecting her to see through the whole affair so clearly.

Yes, if Shang Wenyin and I were in a romantic relationship of our own accord, with my identity as a direct disciple of Master Floating Cloud, I would be absolutely worthy of her status as a gifted cultivator of the Gui Xu Sect.

Why would she need to elope and run away with me?

Such an astute person!

With so many people in the Main Hall, it was clear to Guan Xia, a mere handmaid, and naturally, others who were astute would understand as well. However, since the Gui Xu Sect was also a powerful sect, those who were not involved naturally wouldn’t want to undermine them.

Lan Qiangwei’s face showed a slight change of expression as she glanced at Zuo Dongxu and nodded, "I have also heard of Lin Chen’s deeds, this person really dares to defy the heavens. Even your Gui Xu Sect can’t find them?"

Zuo Dongxu said with a wry smile, "This person is not very strong, but his ability to hide and escape is exceptional. He possesses the Avatar Ability, appearing and vanishing unpredictably. It’s said that even a Hall Master has been deceived by his avatar. We’ve spent a lot of effort, but to no avail. I even suspect that he has already left the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain. After all, being pursued by the Myriad Immortal Hall, the best strategy would indeed be to flee the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain..."

Lan Qiangwei hummed in response, "Perhaps so."

Although Zuo Dongxu was greeting Lan Qiangwei, it was evident that she didn’t want to engage with him; perhaps the only person she was truly interested in was Shang Wenyin, listed among the Three Great Goddesses.

No matter the woman, all care deeply about beauty.

Although Zuo Dongxu had ideas about Lan Qiangwei, in public, it was clear that she did not want to deal with him, and he naturally did not want to overdo his advances. Just as he was about to sit back down, someone stood up in the distance.

"I am Gu Maduo, a Battle Hall disciple of the Myriad Immortal Hall. Lin Chen followed Zhen Liuxue and killed our War Hall Master as well as many Battle Hall disciples. If anyone has information about him, please let me know. If anyone conceals information or helps him, they will be considered an accomplice."

Gu Maduo?

The prodigy from the Western Hell who joined Shu Zi Feng for the Apprentice of the Immortal Palace assessment and ultimately entered the Immortal Palace?

Lin Chen hadn’t noticed him before but didn’t expect him to be here too.

Without turning around, Lin Chen appeared indifferent, but inwardly he sighed to himself, surprised that there were quite a few people present who had crossed paths with him. It was fortunate he had disguised himself and changed his appearance, otherwise, the trouble would be never-ending.

Fortunately, Lin Chen’s strength had grown much stronger now. Unless his opponent was a Quasi-Saint, they would be unlikely to detect all the details about him.

Lin Chen reminded himself not to reveal any of his signature traits such as the Sword Bone, Eight-Armed Arhat or Avatar Ability, otherwise, if Gu Maduo caught sight of that, it would spell disaster.

Gu Maduo’s words stirred up a commotion in the entire Main Hall.

Not every cultivator cared about external affairs, and given the vastness of the Immortal Domain, many did not know of Lin Chen nor the incident of Jiang Wanchun’s death, causing them to inquire curiously.

The matter was public for the Myriad Immortal Hall, as many sects from the Western Hell were involved at the time, and the news had spread afterward. There was no point in covering it up.

For a moment, Lin Chen suddenly became the central topic of discussion in the Main Hall.

Lin Chen felt speechless inside, thinking, is it really necessary?

I’m a minor character; do you gifted talents from hundreds of different forces really need to find discussing me so intriguing?

Guan Xia looked at Lin Chen and whispered, "Young Master, don’t you have any interest in what they’re talking about?"

Lin Chen replied casually, "What’s it to me? I’m here just as a lucky fellow who obtained a Gathering Immortal Command, freeloaded on food and drink. These big issues are beyond me to meddle with; even if I wanted to discuss them, a slip of the tongue could easily offend someone..."

Guan Xia softly said, "The young master is too humble."

Lin Chen lifted his wine glass and said with a laugh, "Drink up, drink up!"

Behind Lin Chen, Lan Qiangwei suddenly turned her head to glance at Lin Chen, who was eating meat and drinking with Guan Xia, her gaze somewhat intrigued.

This man is somewhat interesting!

Other aspects aside, he is quite self-aware, and even with his back to her, he didn’t take another look; his self-control is impressive, and he’s smart, good at protecting himself.

Did he obtain his Gathering Immortal Command from someone else?

He’s lucky, but his choice of handmaid is rather unfortunate - judging from her looks and temperament, she’s probably at the bottom of all the handmaids here.

Lan Qiangwei withdrew her gaze, after all, he was just a person who didn’t concern her; attracting her attention even for an instant was quite impressive.

While the Hall was lively, Lin Chen seemed like an outsider. Fortunately, there were quite a few like him who simply drank on their own without joining the discussions, so he didn’t stand out too much.

Having eaten his fill and drunk to contentment, nightfall came, and Lin Chen left with Guan Xia to return to their lodging.

Nothing happened during the night.

In the early morning, Guan Xia stepped out of the Small Building and said softly to Lin Chen, who stood at the cliff edge admiring the scenery, "Young Master, did you rest well?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "The scenery here is beautiful, the air is fresh, it’s quiet; I slept exceptionally well."

Guan Xia looked at Lin Chen, her eyes filled with subtle expression.

Last night, as soon as Lin Chen had returned, he went straight to his room without even uttering any playful remarks.

Did he find her too ugly?
